  Hi Jagadeesh, 

  "bit field" is a way that let you define a varible to be less than a byte 
in size. For example: 3 bits. 
  It is used as structs. 

struct nibble { 
     unsigned int n0: 4; 
     unsigned int n1: 4; 
     unsigned int n2: 4; 
     unsigned int n3: 4; 
}; 

  In this way you have declared four variables, each with a size of four 
bits.
